There are a lot of fun Spectrum games if you respected its limitations and didn't try to tell yourself that porting 68000 arcade games to it was a good idea.

I honestly think that cassette tape as a game data storage is a genius idea. You can just turn on the radio, press the record button and get yourself a new game literally out of air. Although I don't know what would happen if some outside noise will interfere during recording, you'll probably be fucked.
